Exciting, huh? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I get it – writing a dating profile<\/a> is hard<\/em>, let alone an OkCupid profile, which is much lengthier and more in-depth than those on Tinder or Bumble. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s totally cool because I\u2019m here to help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let's get started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

OkCupid Profile Example #1<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"OkCupid<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

My Self-Summary <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTom. 27. Manchester<\/em>

5\u201911 (it\u2019s important, apparently)<\/em>

Full-time musician.\u00a0<\/em>

Master's graduate from Salford Uni.\u00a0<\/em>

Have a two-year-old Alaskan Malamute<\/em>
(Yes, I\u2019m shamelessly using a photo of him.)<\/em>

Living on a strict diet of coffee and pizza.<\/em>

I don\u2019t really have any idea what I\u2019m doing<\/em>

But let\u2019s go for a drink or two and hang out?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OkCupid Profile Example #2<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"OkCupid<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

My Self-Summar<\/strong><\/em>y<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTry not to take life too seriously. I like to experience as much of other cultures and societies as possible. I\u2019m very open-minded and tend to try most things at least once \u2026 not always the best mantra in my experience, but it always leads to a story or two. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m equally at home on the sofa or in bed as I am at a gig or a rave. Got an amazing group of empathetic and supportive friends who mean the world to me, so I\u2019d like to meet someone outgoing and positive who isn\u2019t afraid to mingle with everyone. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historically long-distance relationships haven\u2019t worked that well for me, but that\u2019s not to say I\u2019m against the idea of traveling a reasonable distance to first get to know someone if we seem like a good match.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OkCupid Profile Example #<\/strong>3\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"OkCupid<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

My Self-Summary <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am very happily taken, and I\u2019m only on here to make new friends. Also, a lot of my answered questions are no longer accurate. ALSO, Chris Martin saying \u201cOh no, what\u2019s this?\u201d In the hit song \u201cTrouble\u201d by Coldplay, instead, he says, \u201cOwO, what\u2019s this?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Game boy (PC, but I do have most consoles). Filled with ideas. Always working on a bunch of projects (and never finishing any of them, ha). I want to be something better than what I am now. I hope I will be. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019d love to meet more like-minded people to talk to <\/em>or play video games with! Feel free to message me about literally anything, though; I find even the weird messages to be entertaining.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips to Write your OkCupid Profile:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tip #1: Cover the key bases in your self-summary <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t Tinder, where you can get away with 2-3 killer lines that sum you up with humor and emojis. On OkCupid, people put real effort into their bios, and they expect that from you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, people on OkCupid aren\u2019t time wasters. They want something<\/em> – be it friendship or a relationship – and they\u2019re going to spend a decent amount of time weeding out the ones who seem right for them from the ones who don\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it\u2019s a good idea to do what these guys have done. Tom\u2019s bio is especially on-point. He lists all the essentials – his age, height, his job, his pets (he knows full well that girls love dogs), and he does it in a compelling way that\u2019s sprinkled with humility, self-deprecation, and humor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also outlines what he\u2019s looking for. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The third guy has got it nailed, too. He tells us what he\u2019s all about and what he\u2019s looking for in 3 brief but informative and interesting paragraphs. He\u2019s also included a pic of him with his cat, which is a surefire winner with the ladies (except those who hate cats!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When crafting your self-summary, tell people the things that are most important to you and<\/em> them. Tom\u2019s career is important to him, so he lists it. But he also knows that things like height are important to women, so he lists that, too. Be honest, be real, and be open. Tell a story, act as though you\u2019re sitting down for a coffee with someone there and then. Go into detail and be revealing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, end with a line that tells people what you\u2019re looking for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What I\u2019m doing with my life<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFormer journalist, working on becoming a language teacher. French assistant this year.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most exciting place I\u2019ve ever been<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJapan or Tanzania. Hard to pick.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like to take pictures of<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy friends during social gatherings, they generally come out pretty hilarious.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #2: Be confident, ambitious, fun, and adventurous <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What do women want? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, we know they want security from a man. They also definitely want confidence, ambition, drive, and a sense of adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why it\u2019s really important that you nail these aspects of your personality in your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great thing about OkCupid is that it gives you a series of prompts like the ones in the above images. It\u2019s your job to maximize this opportunity by presenting the best version of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one of the examples above, we have a guy who is working on becoming a language teacher. He\u2019s clearly got both brains and ambition. And he speaks French. Oh-la-la. This is the type of thing you need to flaunt because it grabs attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we\u2019ve got a dude who finds it hard to pick between Japan and Tanzania for the most exciting place he\u2019s ever been to. He gets around – maybe someone wants to join him for some adventures? Either way, he\u2019s got lots of stories to tell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we\u2019ve got the life and soul of the party – the cheeky Chappy who loves to take hilarious pics of his mates during social gatherings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you can flaunt your confidence, ambition, sense of adventure, and fun-loving nature in your profile, you\u2019re onto a winner with the girls on OkCupid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"three<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When do you cook?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUsually only for company. I like to entertain and have my friends eat and drink well. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it\u2019s just me, I\u2019m pretty unmotivated to cook something; cereal or a PB and j Sammy will do just fine.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My go-to dance<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHave you ever seen Elaine dance?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Six things I could never do without <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy guitar<\/em>
Rainy days <\/em>
Sushi <\/em>
The ocean <\/em>
The moon<\/em>
The stars\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip #3: Showcase your interests <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is, of course, really important that you showcase your interests, but you don\u2019t need to be bored with how you do it. In our first example above, the guy is expanding on his social life, showing us that he\u2019s a bit of an entertainer. He\u2019s using a very simple prompt about cooking to give women a broader insight into who he\u2019s all about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s not just a cook – he\u2019s a people person. In this way, he\u2019s used the prompt as a pretext for showing us more about him. This is what you need to do, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second example<\/strong>, on the other hand, includes a reference to the US sitcom Seinfeld. Naturally, if you\u2019ve never seen Seinfeld, you won\u2019t get that. But those who will? Well, they\u2019re the type of women who this man is looking for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What I really love about this subtle reference, by the way, is that the guy isn\u2019t boring by mundanely listing his favorite dance. Instead, he\u2019s giving us an interesting answer by telling us he doesn\u2019t dance, but he does watch Seinfeld. I love that, and you should use that sort of thing in your profile. It\u2019s witty; it gets attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the \u2018Six things I could never do without<\/strong>\u2019 prompt is your friend, and you should use it. This is your chance to list the things that really matter to you and which can help to attract someone who shares your interests or whose interest is at least piqued by your interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we can see from the guy above, he\u2019s done a great job of listing some of his hobbies, but he\u2019s also shown what he really values – he values the small but beautiful things in life. In other words, nature and – I\u2019m guessing – sharing a kiss under the stars with his next partner. It\u2019s this kind of thing that works really well on OkCupid, where people care about feelings and what\u2019s inside a person.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takeaway:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use these tips and examples in this article to improve your own OkCupid profile so that you get better matches. Remember to summarise yourself in a way that makes you presentable and interesting to the right people, but don\u2019t forget to be unashamedly you<\/em>. However, this is online dating, so you are allowed to give yourself a bit of a shine, too. Then, flaunt your personality in a fun and engaging way without coming across as too arrogant or conceited. Be confident but also be humble and playful.
